An Olympic Dream

Presented by The London Ballet Company

The 2012 Summer Olympic Games, officially known as "the Games of the XXX Olympiad", are scheduled to take place here in London from the 27th July to the 12th August, 2012. Athletes from 204 nations are expected to participate. An estimated 10,500 athletes will compete. There will be 302 events in 26 sports. These are the cold statistics.

By the dancers of the London Ballet Company, and inspired by the Olympics, we zip from the origins in Greece to a packed underground train on a journey through to the athletes in training. Newspapers proclaim the great event and the flame nears its journeys end......At last, the opening ceremony. A proud moment. Let these games begin!
